I am the Knuckl3head, I have been using Linux Mint for a couple months now. I am proud to introduce myself. No one thinks that Knuckl3head would be a name to be proud of. I chose the name because that is what I describe myself as. I am trying to make my own Linux OS, I might base it off of Mint (or maybe Debian, still arguing with myself.). One thing I would like to meet you all, is how you chose your username.

Hi Knuckl3head, welcome to the Linux Mint forums Thanks for joining the forums! Making your own Linux distro sounds like a daunting, but possibly rewarding task. At least guaranteed you will learn something along the way I think. Clem has a tutorial (http://community.linuxmint.com/tutorial/view/918) on how to respin the Linux Mint ISOs, creating your own Live ISO and installer with the packages of your choice.

Be sure also to check out the Community website (tutorials, hardware and software reviews, ideas), and, if you picked the Cinnamon edition, the Cinnamon Spices website for adding even more themes, applets and extensions to Cinnamon.

You can also chat in real-time with other Linux Mint users. In the Mint Menu, in the Internet section, start the application XChat IRC. You will automatically get connected to #linuxmint-chat for general chat and #linuxmint-help for support with other Linux Mint users.

Have fun with Linux Mint.

Thanks for the tutorial! I am just going to mix Linux Mint and CentOS together to make my Linux. Make a Linux Mint Enterprise Edition kinda thing.
